Political Cartoons
More research on cartoons after Charlie Hebdo. The cartoons vary in humour and content.
Theoretical background
Definition distorted exaggerated images, usually mass produces, which employ iconic types
and visual metaphors to affect power in society.
Descriptive vs Explanatory analysis what it is + types vs effects cartoons have or causes
Studied haphazardly since 1967 but few people from the mainstream.
Since Danish cartoons in Jylland Posten, more attention → even more after
attacks

How to analyze
Analyste the content/visuals. You start descriptive, always look at countries. You come up
with a coding scheme Wild et al
1. Narrative What is the story line?
2. Domestication How does cartoonist bring it closer to home. Make it understandable
for the readers
3. Binary struggle Who are portrayed in a binary struggle. It can be implicit as well
4. Normatieve transference Who is the loser?



Political preference influences the way that people look at the cartoons. They find it funnier.
But if you add a explainer it is not as funny anymore because people know that they are
being laughed at.
